Linda, this is gorgeous! Which printer or service did you use to print on fabric?

Just blows my mind how spectacular a quilt can be.
As I watch tv show, movies we see quilts represented all the time.
Now it is time to bring quilts into major exhibitions.
Myrtle Beach SC use to have a tremendous quilt show years ago. I would love going just to see the quilts.
I was naive about quilts but had a quest for knowledge.
What I did not like was the vendors thinking that everyone was in the same place with experience.
I was intimidated.
Thank goodness for web sites, you tube, no judgement.

The representation and the quilting are wonderful, but I think that the subject, rather than taking a break, looks as if she's trying to get a prickle out of her finger.

This is artistry in the purest form. Wonderful.

As an artist who paints, I can appreciate the detail that is captured with fabric. I would not have the patience as I could paint it much faster but I admire the talent.

Very nice - I always enjoy seeing mural quilts.
And that's just raw-edge appliqué (plus painting and quilting, of course), correct?
